Don’t Be a Bitter Twitter When it Comes to Divorce

Divorcing couples in Scotland run the risk of putting their settlements in jeopardy if they succumb to the “bitter twitter” urge, according to a Scottish family law solicitor.

Edinburgh firm Gibson Kerr believes that couples who are going through divorce proceedings should be careful about what information they share on social network sites about their partners – and should even consider agreeing internet truce until their divorce is complete.

The firm highlights the trend of using social networking sites to complain about partners during divorce proceedings – or “bitter twittering” – as a phenomenon that is is becoming increasingly prevalent across the Unites States and in the UK.
